BORN TO WIN

  BORN TO WIN 1 John 5:1-5 Devotional:- “For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world-our faith.” (V. 4) NKJV God is great, mighty and victorious. No one can challenge His power and authority. They’ve not given birth to the devil that can face God. He has on several occasions given the devil a public disgrace (Colossians 3:15). When God created man, He expected him to cheaply overcome the enemy. But the first man fell into the devil’s trick. Because God cannot fail, He did not create a second Adam but gave birth to Him. There is power in this. He discovered that the first Adam did not perfectly resemble Him in strength and power. So He decided to give birth to the second Adam, in the person of Jesus. So He is referred to as the firstborn among the living. God has not born anyone before Him. Whatever you give birth to will carry your strength. Friend, that is why, since that time, people become Christians not by coming to churc...

THE RICH FOOL

THE RICH FOOL            

Luke 12:13-21
Devotional Verse: - "And He said to them, "Take heed and beware of covetousness, for one's life does not consist in the abundance of the things he possesses” (Vs.15)

    It is amazing to hear that people can be rich and foolish at the same time. It looks contradictory. This is because in our thinking, we expect every rich person to be wise. We often assume that it takes wisdom to be rich. This assumption is quite true but we have not taken time to separate Godly wisdom from worldly wisdom (James 3:13-18).
 
    Jesus responded to a man who was seeking to take up a case with his brother concerning inheritance. Jesus thought us to be careful of covetousness. As a citizen of the kingdom of God. Your life is no longer yours, not to think of the materials in your possession.  Jesus then gave a parable of a rich fool who does not know that all things belong to God. He was so selfish with his wealth that he lost his soul. Friend, don’t ever let this happen to you.
 
    The wisdom of the world tells people to stop giving to have more (Luke16:15) and makes them covetous. People with the wisdom of this world never see what they have as good enough. This is why they can do anything to keep getting more because their hope lies in money. The wisdom of God always asks us to give, because our trust is not in money but in His divine provision (Matthew 7:24). God will always ask you to give to know whether your love is for money or for Him. As a kingdom citizen, it is important that you get used to this. Be happy and grateful for the much God is giving you and you will have access to more of His Blessings. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, help me not to be a servant but a master to money.

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

MASTER’S MINAS

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.

COURAGE

COURAGE Joshua 1:1-9 Devotional:- “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go” (V. 9) NKJV      A major reason why many people are weak is because their level of courage is so low, that it cannot sustain them through to success. So they easily give up when faced with challenges. There is need for us to understand that there is no action that will not attract a reaction. So the only answer is courage.
